        respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, respond to claims that a posting
        or other content violates others' rights, or protect anyone's rights, property,

    <h2>
        Cookies</h2>

    <p>
        Our website uses <a href="#cookies">cookies</a>, <a href="#web-beacons">web beacons</a>,
        and <a href="#third-parties">third-parties</a> to provide you with services that
        support your buying and selling activities within our online marketplace. To protect
        your privacy, use of these tools is limited.
    </p>

    <h2 id="cookies">
        About cookies</h2>

    <p>
        Cookies are small files placed on the hard drive of your computer. MixNP uses both
        persistent/permanent and session cookies to provide services to you and help ensure
        account security. Most cookies are 'session cookies', meaning that they are automatically
        deleted from your hard drive once you end your session (log out or close your browser).
        Even when our cookies are not deleted automatically, you have the full control to
        delete it manually.
    </p>

    <h2>
        MixNP uses cookies on certain pages of the website to:</h2>
    <ul>
        <li>Enable you to enter your password less frequently during a session.</li>
        <li>Provide information that is targeted to your interests.</li>
        <li>Promote and enforce trust and safety.</li>
        <li>Offer certain features that are only available through the use of cookies.</li>
        <li>Measure promotional effectiveness.</li>
        <li>Analyse our site traffic.</li>
    </ul>
    <h2>
        Cookies we use for trust and safety</h2>

    <p>
        MixNP uses cookies, to help ensure that your account security is not compromised
        and to spot irregularities in behaviour to prevent your account from being fraudulently
        taken over.
    </p>

    <h2>
        Your choices about cookies</h2>

    <p>
        We offer certain features that are only available through the use of a cookie. You're
        always free to decline cookies if your browser permits. However, if you decline
        cookies, you may not be able to use certain features on the website, and you may
        be required to re-enter your password more frequently during a session.
    </p>

    <h2 id="web-beacons">
        Web beacons</h2>

    <p>
        A web beacon is an electronic image, called a single-pixel (1x1) or clear GIF placed
        in the web page code. Web beacons serve many of the same purposes as cookies. In
        addition, web beacons are used to track the traffic patterns of users from one page
        to another in order to maximise web traffic flow.
    </p>

    <h2 id="third-parties">
        Use of cookies and web beacons by third parties</h2>

    <p>
        We may work with other companies who place cookies or web beacons on our websites.
        These service providers help operate our websites, by for example compiling anonymous
        site metrics and analytics. We require these companies to use the information they
        collect only to provide us with these services under contract, and not for their
        own purposes.
    </p>

    <p>
        We don't permit third-party content on MixNP (such as item listings) to include
        cookies or web beacons. If you believe a listing might be collecting personal information
        or using cookies, please report it <a href="/contact-us/safety.mix">here</a>.
    </p>

    <h2>
        Using Information from MixNP</h2>

    <p>
        You may use personal information gathered from MixNP only to follow up with another
        user about a specific posting, not to send spam or collect personal information
        from someone who hasn't agreed to that.
    </p>

    <h2>
        Marketing</h2>

    <p>
        If you do not wish to receive marketing communications from us, you can simply unsubscribe
        from us at any time. However, at this point of time, we are not sending you any
        newsletters or marketing materials.
    </p>

    <h2>
        Security</h2>

    <p>
        We use many tools to protect your personal information against unauthorized access
        and disclosure, but as you probably know, nothing's perfect, so we make no guarantees.
    </p>

    <h2>
        General</h2>

    <p>
        We may update this policy at any time, with updates taking effect when you next
        post or after 30 days, whichever is sooner. If we or our corporate affiliates are
        involved in a merger or acquisition, we may share personal information with another
        company, and this other company shall be entitled to share your personal information
        with other companies but at all times otherwise respecting your personal information
        in accordance with this policy.
